Answer:

c. $21009.20

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the principal amount of money that would be needed to deposited into an account earning 5.75% interest compounded annually in order for the accumulated value at the end of 25 years to be $85,000.

We will use compound interest formula to solve our given problem.

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nT}, where,

A = Final amount after T years,

P = Principal amount,

r = Interest rate in decimal form,

n = Number of times interest is compounded per year,

T = Time in years.

Let us convert our given interest rate in decimal form.

5.75\%=\frac{5.75}{100}=0.0575

Upon substituting our given values in compound interest formula we will get,

\$85,000=P(1+\frac{0.0575}{1})^{1*25}

\$85,000=P(1+0.0575)^{25}

\$85,000=P(1.0575)^{25}

\$85,000=P*4.0458464965061301

Let us divide both sides of our equation by 4.0458464965061301.

\frac{\$85,000}{4.0458464965061301}=\frac{P*4.0458464965061301}{4.0458464965061301}

\$21009.20044134235=P

Upon rounding our answer to nearest hundredth we will get,

P\approx \$21009.20

Therefore, an amount of $21009.20 should be deposited in the account and option 'c' is the correct choice.

I will assume you are using compound interest. 

let the amount invested be x 

x(1.0575)^25 = 85000 
<span>x = 85000/1.0575^25 = $21,009.20</span>

A collection of 5 positive integers has mean 4.4, unique mode 3 and median 4. If an 8 is added to the collection, what is the ne
Sphinxa [80]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears the 5 integers must be {3, 3, 4, 5, 7}.

For the mode to be unique, there must be more than one '3', and there cannot be any other repeated numbers. For 4 to be the median, it must be the 3rd-highest number. Then the remaining numbers must be integers greater than 4 with a sum of 12 for the mean to be 4.4.

When 8 is added to the collection, the median is now the average of 4 and 5, so is 4.5.

The new median is 4.5.

_____

<em>Comment on vocabulary</em>

<u>mean</u>: the sum of numbers divided by the number of numbers. 5 numbers with a mean of 4.4 will have a sum of 5×4.4 = 22.

<u>median</u>: the middle number of a collection of an odd number of numbers, when sorted from lowest to highest. It is the 3rd number of a group of 5 numbers. When there are an even number of numbers in the group, the median is the average of the middle two in the sorted list. Here, that means the 3rd number in the list of 5 is '4'. When 8 is added, 4 becomes one of the numbers contributing to the average that will be the new median.

<u>mode</u>: the member of the group that appears the most times. When the mode is unique, it means there are no other numbers repeated as often. Here, we know the 3rd number (of 5) is 4, so there can only be two numbers '3' in the collection. That 3 is the unique mode means no other numbers are repeated at all.

11x = 99

x=99/11

x=9

6x = 6x9 = 54

5x = 5x9 = 45
